I am sitting by the stove, enjoying the Seattle rain through The window and wishing I had loaded up 3000+ lbs of wood chunks for the long drive to Argos
Please keep the pics coming

This years Argos was a blast with many serious woodgassers always willing to share their knowledge. The weather really cooperated this time around. Thank you once again to the Lemlers for hosting this show and for the super dry bags of chunks I got to take home. Thanks to the ladies for all the food. I’ll be making Wayne’s T shape shaker pole for easier light up and using Chris S’s method of transitioning between gasoline and woodgas operation. Anybody attending these shows will always learn something new. See you all next year!

I was disapointed that I could only come down for the day on Friday and missed seeing some of you. Still, I had a good time and learned some stuff and got inspired again.

Good morning all.
Again the Lemler family has shown they are masters at hosting an event. Thanks to all that were involved.
The wife and I got home about 7 pm last night from the flawless trip. I added 1300 miles to the truck odometer with a very small dent in my wood pile and wallet.
Thanks again to all 😌

I have a few pictures to share, but this one is my favorite. It may wind up on a t-shirt.

Chris, I don’t recognize his name. I tried to search his name on DOW. He must go by a different name? Is this a new wood truck?

Bill, I talked with Kevin and he told me he is a reader not a poster but he promised to post some now that he is up and running. He did a really nice job on that nice looking truck.
